Product design, branding, and web design. I worked as a leading designer, collaborating closely with the founder and team of developers.

Goals

The idea for Askyoyo originated from a team of experienced hoteliers who recognized the need for a more efficient and effective way for guests to communicate their preferences and needs to hotel staff. They saw that many guests were frustrated with the current process, which often involved filling out lengthy forms or making multiple phone calls to the hotel. They also noticed that hotels were spending a lot of time and resources coordinating requests and responding to guest inquiries.

To address these issues, the team developed Askyoyo, a guest experience app that makes it easy for hotels to tailor each guest's stay according to their preferences and needs. With Askyoyo, guests can simply log in to the app and select their preferences and demands for their stay. The app automatically sends this information to the hotel, which can quickly and efficiently respond to requests. This streamlined the communication process and made it easier for guests to have their preferences and needs met.
